DOC: process for new releases about scipy.org

[stefanv]

Hi Tyler, I can follow up with more detail tomorrow, but I believe you want to update https://github.com/scipy/scipy.org/blob/master/content/en/news.md

The website, after merge, will build and deploy itself.

[stefanv]

In our other sites, I think we will have the news articles automatically list themselves and then use the latest one on the banner. That way, only a new entry has to be added as a markdown file.

I'll implement that in the theme, and then we can decide if we want to switch SciPy over.

See scientific-python/scientific-python-hugo-theme#64

@jarrodmillman AFAIK the release documentation is here https://scipy.github.io/devdocs/dev/core-dev/index.html#making-a-scipy-release

It may be obvious, but it is pretty late so I'll take a look later this weekend.

The second place to update is the news: entry in config.yaml in the root of the repo.

[stefanv]

Ah, right, that sets the news bar text on the front page!

[tupui]

Following #425, we can continue to have a single news page and we have now the possibility to update the banner from the news preamble. Hence making a new release (or any news) would just mean updating the news page and preamble.

@tylerjereddy We are still changing things a bit, so feel free to ping me when you make a new release announcement PR and I will double-check that you got everything. Also, if you point me to the scipy release process documentation, I will make sure to keep it up-to-date.

I believe this is resolved now.
